A Theoretical Study of 2-nitrofuran vs 3-nitrofuran as Dienophilic Electrophile in Polar Cycloaddition Reaction: Comparison of the Reactivity and Reaction Mechanism

Mauro Cainelli, Carla M. Ormachea, Pedro M. E. Mancini & María N. Kneeteman · International Research Journal of Pure and Applied Chemistry · 2016

In this study, we analyzed in a theoretical form the behavior of 2-nitrofuran and 3-nitrofuran acting as dienophilic electrophiles in polar cycloaddition reactions joint to different dienes. The reactivity and regioselectivity was discussed employing global and local reactivity i...
